The campaign in Borderlands 2 lasts about 58 hours, Gearbox’s VP of Marketing Steve Gibson tells GamerZines. "What we like to think about it is, Borderlands is a hobby. Some guide guys just did a playthrough of Borderlands 2 and they reported back to us that it takes 58 hours to play through the campaign – and that’s just one playthrough with one character," he says. "So the depth with which people can get into that…Yeah we look at it as a hobby, and that isn’t even counting the new Badass Points system and how that’ll affect every character you do. We want it to feel like you get more for your money, we’re happy for people to pay their money once and feel that they get ongoing value." Thanks VG247.

I'm an unapologetic singleplayer gamer, which would explain why 90% of my time with Borderlands was spent completely alone even though everyone says its strength was in its coop. I don't mind coop really - in truth I like it very much - but I am not very compatible with most other gamers so I tend to play alone for the most stress-free experience. You know that guy in Left 4 Dead and Dead Island that was always lagging behind by 50 yards? Yeah, that's me.
